​​“Excellent family vacation activity!”"My family loved it! It was a unique experience for everyone involved and brought out the kid in all of us. A very memorable experience."-TripAdvisor Review, 904Wendy

​There are lots of great things to do in San Diego, but if you're looking for something a little different this is it! Lots of cities have zoos, parks, and beaches as great as ours, but sand castle lessons like this aren't offered anywhere else. This is the most unique activity around! We won't be turning over some little baby buckets, we'll be doing seriously LEGIT and AWESOME professional sand castle building with hard core tools, equipment, and techniques. It's first rate fun for families, incredible for couples, and fantastic for friends.

No art experience is necessary. We make your session as easygoing or as challenging as you'd like, for both kids and adults. Sculpting like a pro is not as hard as you'd think when we show you how!

We know you may not have heard of sand castle lessons (since we made it up...) and maybe you aren't sure if you'll like it so see what others have had to say:

Great time with Tony building dream castle!Found San Diego Sand Castles mentioned in one of the forums. Planned this for my 18 and 20 year old nieces while visiting the area. This was one of the favorite things we did during our visit. Their mom, grandmother and I watched and took pictures. Tony was a lot of fun, very patient and definitely added to the experience. We booked the last appointment of the day and got lots of great sand castle sunset photos. It was hard to leave the beach and their masterpiece behind. Great for almost any size group. Not sure why Trip Advisor lists this under activities instead of under "Things to do". We almost missed it.

super awesome family fun time"it was our last day in San Diego, luckily, sand castles had an opening. myself, and my 11 and 13 year old built awesome sand castles and had a ton of fun. what was especially great, is my 11 and 13 year old worked together (they are usually fighting with one another) and that made it even better for me...."-TripAdvisor Review, Ibherman

Fun day...even when rainy!I never expected this to be a hit. But it was reviewed so highly on Trip Advisor, that we thought, why not? Ended up being a real memory-maker of our trip. Great for a couple who wants to do something different.-TripAdvisor Review, Mary F.

The unexpected highlight of the trip"We are a family of 4, with girls ages 11 and 16. We didn't know what to expect and when I said we were taking a sand castle building class there were a few questioning looks, but this was a great family experience - the highlight of the trip! The location was beautiful and our guide was the right balance of teacher and helpful, but didn't do it for us. We learned so much and felt so accomplished with our sand castle. Give yourself plenty of time and bring sun screen and water. Highly recommend!!! You won't be disappointed."-TripAdvisor Review, CarrieJo519
